Disassembly tools now use the Anatomy skill.
Added a "Custom" folder to the Elin save data directory, allowing for easy addition or modification of custom replacement images. (Currently includes only a portrait replacement folder.

EA 23.52 (Nightly)

12/8 2024

[Fixes]

Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Initial crafting items, such as buckets, now have a low chance of being generated as loot. Specific details about items and similar data are adjusted periodically without explicit mention in release notes.
Faith bonuses now increase based on the number of days of faith in addition to piety improvements.
Farming through fast travel isn’t currently planned for restriction. However, adjustments like reducing market value for repeatedly sold identical items may be considered in the future.

EA 23.49 (Nightly)

12/5 2024

[Changes and Additions Outside the Game]

Official tags and categories for mods can now be set in the Steam Workshop.
Documentation on setting Workshop Tags is available in the "Development Nook."

[Changes and Additions]

Addressed a delay when entering the global map for the first time after loading a game with many companions.
Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Multiple NPCs on the same tile primarily occur as a fallback when no vacant tiles are available or during specific interactions. In general, adjustments will be made gradually to prevent exploiting this state for experience farming.

EA 23.48 (Nightly)

12/4 2024

 The location of the backup folder will change from "Elin/Save/Backup" to "Elin/Backup." If the "Elin/Backup" folder already exists for any reason, the backup folder will not be moved automatically.

 This version includes significant changes to the internal save/load system, which may cause save/load processes to become unstable. It is recommended to back up all save data from the standard version separately from the Nightly save data for safety.

Elin generates a large number of save files with substantial file sizes. To optimize Steam Cloud usage, save files are compressed into zip format each time you save. It's possible that moving this compression process to occur only at the end of a game session could speed things up. We'll consider this approach based on user feedback.

If the position of widgets shifts when loading from cloud saves, try adjusting the widget anchors. For example, if the anchor is set to the top left, the widget's position will be saved and loaded relative to the top left corner of the screen.

During the Early Access period, we plan to focus on balancing primarily for floors 1–50, with adjustments extending to around floor 200 in the Void Dungeon. For floors beyond that, if major balancing adjustments are required, we may implement interim fixes or simpler adjustments like the one in the last nightly update. Additionally, as we have limited game data for high-level scenarios, attaching your save data in your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

[Additions and Changes]

NPCs now destroy fishing results when their inventory is full and cannot pick them up.
Adjusted some of Mesherada's dialogue (Since the name "Hathaway" is not intended to refer to a specific individual but rather to "that person" yet to be seen, akin to Beatrice in Re:Zero. In the player's case, they are the one she is searching for.).
The enchantment effects "Travel Speed Increase" and "Magic Enhancement" no longer scale with level.
Kicking NPCs who obstruct construction no longer reduces karma.
NPCs will now be kicked even in Build Mode when constructing impassable blocks above them.
Minions can now be banished even if they are far away.
Minions will drop meat and genetic materials less frequently.
NPCs above level 1000 will gain speed adjustments every 100 levels (provisional change to avoid excessive power).
Changed the location of the backup folder.
Experimental support for Steam Cloud.

[Fixes]

Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

The selection of goods from exotic merchants does not change even when they are at the player's base. However, unlocking guild ranks may introduce services unavailable at the base.

EA 23.47 (Nightly)

12/3 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Pebbles and (swimming) fish on the map no longer consume fertility points, as they are sometimes used as base decorations.
In user maps, the invisibility flag for Covenant Stones, Waystones, impassable furniture, and similar items is now removed.
In user maps, no more than three NPCs will be loaded on a single tile.
In user maps, no more than 20 items will be loaded on a single tile.
Yakasha statues can now be used for cooking (equivalent to campfires).
Adjusted genetic slots for some Apostle-related genes.
Added behavior settings to multiple NPCs.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where items inside locked containers could be submitted for quests. Similar bugs were also fixed.
Resolved an issue where holding a key for continuous attacks no longer worked with keyboard controls.
Fixed the incorrect application of adjusted gratuity amounts for NPC performances.
Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

The official term for piety is "piety."

EA 23.46

12/2 2024

[Additions and Changes]

The name of the "Machine Ruins" has been changed to "Machinarium" to avoid overlap with other ruins.
Adjusted the cost and limits of genetic feats.
New genetic feats have been unlocked.
Some powerful genetic feats now require multiple genetic slots (applicable only to genes generated in this version and beyond).
If Meteor is not registered as a favorite ability, the PC will no longer use Meteor in auto-combat.
Items with different named identifiers will no longer stack.
Some animals will occasionally sleep beside the PC when they rest.
Added the "I'd like to sleep beside you" option to conversations starting with "Actually..."
Added new NPC behavior settings.
Oaths can now be broken by selecting the PC from the resident bulletin board.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where enemies visible via telepathy were not targeted for shooting or other actions in auto-combat.
Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Regarding the damage of high-level enhanced ammunition, if there is more feedback in the future, either the calculation formula will be reviewed or enhancement limits will be set.
As for activities like farming experience points through idle mechanics in user maps, this being a single-player game, a certain degree of leniency is considered acceptable for active exploits.

Hotfix

Fixed an error when generating iron maiden.
Crops can no longer be grown outside of bases or tents.
Fixed an issue where the PC would pat enemies on the head during auto-combat.
Fixed an issue where "Rapid Fire" was displayed as a feat available to the PC.

EA 23.45

12/1 2024

[Additions and Changes]

The Watering Jar can now be used in places where fences, walls, or furniture that blocks movement are placed.
When an egg not owned by the player hatches, the baby will no longer become the player’s pet.
Claiming non-quest-related land will no longer automatically set it as the player’s home or respawn point.
When drunk or confused while mounted, movement may occasionally become unsteady.
For enemies with a single elemental attribute (e.g., Chaos Mushrooms), level adjustments based on their attribute will no longer apply. (Previously, Chaos Mushrooms, which are supposed to be around level 30, were being generated at nearly level 50 due to chaos attribute adjustments.)
When the player sleeps, companions will now also fall asleep.
Several genetic feats have been unlocked.
Maximum acquisition levels have been set for some genetic feats.
Behavioral settings have been added to multiple NPCs.
Updated Chinese translations.

[Fixes]

Corrected an issue where enemies with multiple attributes (e.g., Hounds) became less likely to appear the higher their attribute rank.
Fixed an issue where non-standard-sized sprites (such as tents) did not display graphics properly when thrown, if the item was stacked in multiple quantities.
Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Holding Shift and right-clicking to equip weapons or shields will equip them to the non-dominant hand.
Starting with tomorrow’s update, crops will no longer grow outside player-owned territories (including tents).
After tomorrow’s update, the update interval for the standard branch of the game will be adjusted to approximately once per week. The main reasons include:
- Adding content such as stories and quests takes several days even for a single update.
- Releasing updates only after sufficient testing through the Nightly branch.
- Aiming to release updates with as few untranslated parts as possible.
- The current update frequency often results in mods breaking with each update, increasing the workload for mod creators.
- Frequent updates have led to confusion and an increase in bug reports related to mods.

EA 23.44

11/30 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Added the ability to toggle whether items from the base container are used for each processing facility.
Added a "Shift UI Position" setting to the side screen widget (experimental).

Fixed an issue where, when "Automatically acquire picked-up cards" was enabled, cards would be collected again immediately after being taken out of the card encyclopedia.
Fixed an issue where sending a Little Sister to heaven would increase the Little Sister kill counter.
Fixed an issue where refreshing the maximum resident count check was not performed after turning residents into livestock.
Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Enhancements for melee combat, including the addition of new abilities, are planned from December.

Hotfix

Removed randomness from bonuses during nursing.
Fixed an issue where changes to the calculation formula for companion abilities were also being applied to the player character (PC).

EA 23.42

11/28 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Added two riding skins (Thanks, Minagi!).

[Fixes]

Fixed the behavior of the Emergency Ration base skill.
Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

The post-EA adjustment and fix rush has started to settle down. The remaining updates for November will likely focus on minor tweaks and adjustments, addressing areas that don’t significantly impact gameplay but have been a source of concern.
For "Yith" monsters, additional monsters will be added to their level range in the future, reducing their spawn rate. A rebalancing will be considered at that time.

EA 23.41

Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Faction effects on divine blessing equipment are only applied when the equipment is directly granted by a god. These effects will disappear if the corresponding god is not worshipped.
Duplicated Demitas does not cause any harm. If this is an issue, please open the console when there are two Demitas and enter "RemoveDemitas."
When Mani's genes are incorporated, the gene's name may change to that of an NPC. This is intentional (the gene itself is not directly Mani's but rather a random NPC gene item labeled as Mani).

Corrected a vision check error when using Bolt-type spells.

EA 23.32

11/18 2024

 I’ve been receiving around 200–300 pieces of feedback per day, which I’m truly grateful for. However, I’m finding it quite challenging to keep up with everything. My PC is still not working well, so until the new one arrives, I’d like to focus on improving my development environment, including looking into recruiting staff to help with feedback and support. As for adding side quests and unique NPCs in towns, I’m hoping to start working on those in December.

Other minor fixes and adjustments.

Revised and organized the content of fortune cookies, removing information unrelated to Elin (excluding intentional false info).
Replaced the open graphic for training chests.
Altered shrines to be passable items, as they were easily destroyed by rare monsters from the Shrine of Conflict.
Removed speed penalties when full.
When the Mother Prohibition Ordinance is active, courtesans will no longer approach.
Genes generated from Mani statues now depend on the statue’s creation level. When resurrecting a statue with a Golden Material Hammer, a fixed random number is used for gene generation.
Adjusted the nutritional effect of spices (they were previously the same as pepper).
Added a new weapon category, “暗器 (Martial Weapon).”
When items are destroyed by fire, cookable ingredients will now turn into grilled dishes, with dish quality dependent on the heat intensity.

[Fixes]

Fixed a bug where NPC shells would remain if the NPC died from a trap.
Corrected swapped effects for blue and red powders in shops.
Fixed an issue with attack ratings on tooltips for stacked throwing weapons, where the entire stack weight was used to calculate the rating.
Resolved an issue where severe drowsiness did not lower speed.
Fixed an issue where touching Mani statues generated before 23.7 had no effect.
Addressed a bug where Mani statue effects sometimes lingered on-screen after generation.
Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

The speed boost effect on the Seven League Boots is intentional.
A dedicated merchant for cassette tapes is planned for the future.
Hair on resident animals will only regrow if they are raised as livestock and fed hay.

EA 23.7

10/30 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Refurbished the Truce Grounds (maps from versions prior to this update will regenerate once. As quests will eventually be added to this area, it may be best not to destroy it indiscriminately).
Added a statue of Jure, which now appears randomly in locations like Nefia.
Added a statue of Mani, which now appears randomly in locations like Nefia.
Added a statue of Kumiromi, which now appears randomly in locations like Nefia.
Adjusted the probability of each statue's appearance.
Nerun will now warn of winter’s approach each November.
In automated farming, crops are now harvested before winter to prevent withering, and seeds are planted in their place.
Weapons suitable for throwing now display an attack rating in their tooltips.

[Fixes]

Various minor adjustments and fixes.

EA 23.6

10/30 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Added casting to the "Itzpalt" faith bonus (due to limited skill growth after resistance growth halts).
Added two new plants, Blue Grass and Red Grass.
Introduced a new item category, "Herbs."
Added herbs as optional ingredients for the "Boiled Weeds" recipe.
Updated the "Bandage" recipe, removing the need for bones and adding herbs and fabric as optional ingredients.
Added production methods for Blue Powder, Red Powder, and Bone Meal to the mortar.
Introduced a tutorial by Nerun on item properties.
Changed the name of the existing "poison" property to "venom."
Added several new properties.
Replaced existing properties for hallucinogenic and poisonous effects in items like crim and mushrooms with new properties (older properties on these items may disappear).
Removed the throwing attribute from stones, adding it as an enemy-exclusive attribute.
Adjusted companions so their hunger recovery rate during meals no longer doubles.
Introduced two new feats, "Heavy Eater," which reduces hunger recovery from meals (nutrition remains the same), and its opposite, "Light Eater," assigned to certain races. (Outside of initial feats, it’s under consideration to make this available as a shift option or similar for PCs and companions. The penalty for Light Eater can be ignored with careful meal planning.)
Added snow accumulation graphics.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where crop seeds without enhancement levels would be generated when crops wilted in winter.
Fixed a problem where AI would sometimes attempt to summon minions even when the minion limit was reached.
Corrected an issue where primary attribute-locked NPCs would receive unusable attribute abilities in their genetics.
Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

The Sun Lamp emits sunlight even when its light is off (also when there is no power).

[Mod Notes]

Currently, if a feat is added by a mod and then the mod is removed, any skills or other stats granted by the feat remain. While this is an area of improvement we’d like to address in the core game, changes may need to coincide with a save data reset if required in the future.
For loading mods when launching Elin outside of Steam, the feature is already present, so this should be enabled from the EA version onward (currently, it tries to load the workshop folder for the production version of the app, so the feature is inactive).

Hotfix 1

Fixed an issue where the effects of the "Heavy Eater" and "Light Eater" feats were not applied correctly.

Hotfix 2

The “Seasoning” slot in cooking recipes now requires items categorized as “Seasoning” rather than items labeled as “Seasoning.”
Fixed an issue preventing non-food traits from being synthesized during cooking.
Fixed an error that could occur when PC or NPCs are pelted with stones during performances.

EA 23.5

10/29 2024

[Additions and Changes]

In user maps, NPC levels and primary element are now recorded (only for maps created in this version or later).
Resistance from faith bonuses now maxes out at immunity.
Resistance abilities (main abilities like strength, perception, etc.) are now assigned to each status effect. Status effect impacts will be reduced based on resistance abilities. If a resistance ability is set, it will also be displayed in the status effect tooltip.
Various adjustments to ability tooltips, now displaying ability power as well.
Added attack effects.
Nutritional intake exceeding fullness is now ignored when eating. Additionally, a 10% meal effect bonus is provided when hungry.
New behavior settings added for NPCs.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where stacking status effects on bosses did not increase their resistance to that effect.
Other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Item acquisition rates in jobs and hobbies are all influenced by the efficiency of the resident performing them. Treasure hunting will also be attempted based on the number of residents with that job or hobby.
Gene drops follow the same conditions as for regular enemies’ loot drops (applies only when not allies, residents, or while in user maps). However, as there are currently limited means of obtaining genes, they will temporarily also drop in user maps.

EA 23.4 Nightly

10/28 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Moved elin.ini to the same location as config.txt. The User folder and temporary Temp folder have also been relocated to the parent folder of config.txt.

[Fixes]

Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Note]

Files and folders previously stored alongside the executable have now been moved to the same location as save data. This change is intended to prevent files from being overwritten during updates and to avoid potential issues with integrity checks that may detect modifications to these files. If any issues or unexpected behavior arise due to this change, please consider reporting them.

EA 23.3

10/28 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Plants that lack sufficient sunlight in winter will gradually wither.
Enhanced sparkle effects for bosses and other notable enemies.
Evolved species no longer drop recessive genes but have a high probability of dropping additional dominant genes.
Evolved species cannot be recruited as companions.
Evolved species and bosses will no longer settle down over time.

Adjusted probability of status abnormalities occurring (further balance adjustments for abnormalities will continue throughout the remainder of the beta period).
Spears can now attack targets two tiles away.
Added spore attack effects.
Added new action settings for monsters.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where, despite setting Auto Combat to avoid using items on the hotbar, the PC would still throw items suitable for throwing if placed on the hotbar.
Fixed a bug that caused unique character traits (such as a Yowyn horse’s speed) to disappear when adjusting levels for characters like infants or bosses during generation.
Various other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Experience points will be gained upon casting the identification spell, even before an item is actually identified, as intended.
Unopened treasure chests with enhancement levels, as well as furniture enhanced with a wrench, already carry intrinsic value as heirlooms, given the associated cost. Further adjustments for added value are not currently planned.
Newly added or modified feats for races and professions will not apply to existing characters. Apologies for the inconvenience-due to data limitations, this cannot easily be changed. Possible remedies such as character regeneration or gene-based solutions are being considered.

Hotfix 1

Added poison and hallucination effects to certain monster meats.
Expanded NPC behavior settings.
Fixed an error that sometimes caused freezing when entering a map in winter.
Adjusted crops so they no longer wither in winter as long as there is sunlight.
Fixed a bug preventing certain spears from applying enchantments that allow attacks on distant enemies.

Fixed a bug that allowed items, such as those with genetic information restrictions, to be stolen despite being set to prevent theft.
Fixed a bug where corpses had an excessive amount of nutrients attached to them.

Hotfix 3

During auto-combat, characters wielding long-range melee weapons will now attack from their position if the enemy is within range.
On the quest board, fixed quests now appear before combat-related ones.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where plants that don’t require sunlight would wither during winter.
Corrected the swapped positions of "Talk" and "Attack" options when using middle-click.
Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Evolution species not being included in the Warrior Guild's bounty hunts is currently intentional, as they are considered neutral beings.

EA 23.2

10/27 2024

[Additions and Changes]

Evolved monsters in a neutral state that always drop genes now appear randomly.
Adjusted the traits of the final traces of faint goodwill left in this unbearable world.
Divine blessing equipment can no longer be selected with the Scroll of Reconstruction.
Added a portrait to Nino.
The value of opened treasure chests now reflects the value of the chest itself.
Items modified with a customized wrench will increase in value proportionally to the modifications made.
In the PC base, individuals related to residents as close family or lovers will no longer appear as quest-givers.
Added a new [Base] entry in the Travel Wisdom section of Help, consolidating base-related pages.

[Fixes]

Various minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

While the Mana Body 2 Feat is somewhat overpowered, this approach allows for some race or class abilities to remain strong. No changes have been made for now, though future adjustments may be considered.

EA 23.1

10/26 2024

[Additions and Changes]

New “Brain Cells” item introduced, which alters AI patterns and ability usage rates. When a pet absorbs brain cells, its AI pattern (movement frequency, optimal range, tactical style, etc.) will change to match that of the NPC from whom the brain cells were taken.
The mysterious young girl now sells brain cells.
The development level of Little Garden now rises based on the number of Littles saved and decreases based on the number of Littles who have perished when the map regenerates.

Added an animation of bubbling to the Gene Synthesizer.
Reinstated the “Display damage numerically” option under the Experimental tab in Settings due to popular demand.
The race “Yith” is now granted the “Fear from Beyond the Stars” trait.
Monsters above Lv50 are now set to spawn closer to Lv50, as the current generation method rarely spawns monsters over Lv50 in areas like Squelch.
Added and updated some NPC action settings.
Stationary enemies will no longer track the PC through pathfinding if the PC moves out of range.

[Fixes]

Fixed an issue where Heavy Armor Casting was no longer showing as an acquirable feat.
Resolved an issue where allies outside of battle were attempting to heal injured allies outside their line of sight.
Corrected an issue preventing torii gates from being stacked on pillars outside of Debug Mode (proper placement is on top of pillars).
Various other minor fixes and adjustments.

[Notes]

Feedback on previous versions and ideas for improvements are always welcome. For pet skill acquisition, the current balance will remain (skills through skill books or genes). Given the demand for certain skills, there may be an option for the mysterious young girl to sell genes containing only specific skill memories.
In both the Japanese and English versions, the terminology for gene dominance and recessiveness includes playful language.
Regarding Specwing’s adventurers, the fairy town is intentionally designed as a gathering place for adventurers.
There are no plans for a specific announcement regarding the final beta test version. The update likely set for October 31st is expected to be the final beta version.
The current drop rate for genes is intended to remain at its present level, though a way to increase the drop rate (such as items) may be introduced in the future.
